Degs’ hit single ‘Poveglia’ and 8-track ‘Mixtape Sprayout’ has made him a drum & bass fan favourite, now he takes centre-stage to unveil his highly anticipated debut album, ‘Letters From Ndgewa’. As well as producing, writing and singing on his tracks, Degs has brought in an all-star collective with S.P.Y, Logistics, Unglued, LSB and Pola & Bryson. His unmistakable charisma is injected across 14 tracks, including his previous singles ‘Levitate Your Mind’ (ft Unglued) and ‘Killer’.

‘Sleepless’ showcases Degs’ versatility as a vocalist. This deep, atmospheric number, produced by Shogun Audio’s Pola & Bryson, wields the art of spoken word and unique lyrical flow for a mesmerising late-night stepper. Degs’ bittersweet soul shines through on ‘Head Trip’ with the production finesse of Phil:osophy. Haunting piano work serves as the foundation for Degs’ silky flows, tear-out rap and snappy hooks. Hospital heavyweight Logistics, a master of liquid D+B, joins the fray on ‘Colour My Soul’ for a sublime track that takes you back to the original Hospital loungecore sound.

Degs’ meteoric rise has taken him worldwide, performing alongside his touring DJ, Lens, at huge summer hotspots like Audioriver, Sun & Bass and Hospitality In The Park. He continues to shine when hosting for some of D+B’s biggest names – London Elektricity, Hybrid Minds, Danny Byrd – and has already received support from BBC Radio 1’s Rene LaVice, Kiss FM’s Andi Durrant, Charlie Tee and Mollie Collins, and Worldwide FM’s Laurent Garnier.

Lyrics

Pamoja forever
Pamoja forever

Link arms in any weather
Separation makes us lose
In sync we beat the pressure

Pamoja forever
Pamoja forever

We can’t do this on our own
If we got big dreams
Then we can’t segregate
In division we lose focus
We let our differences provoke us
To build self esteem
Then we must change
I smile as I’m writing this verse
Cos I’m feeling secure in these words
Link arms in any weather
Separation makes us lose
In sync we beat the pressure

Pamoja forever
Pamoja forever

We can’t do this on our own
(Do this on our own)
(Do this on our own)

There’s a place for broken souls
It’s music where we’re finding our escape
The family pulls us through
Get lost in this unspoken code
In sound is where we find our better days
The road ain’t always smooth
But you can do this if you choose
Link arms in any weather
Separation makes us lose
In sync we beat the pressure

Pamoja forever
Pamoja forever
Pamoja forever
Pamoja forever
We can’t do this on our own
(Do this on our own)
